The Sens have had a long break since their 3-1 loss against the Boston Bruins. It was a good effort by the team but ultimately, the Bruins proved to be too much for the tired Sens.
While they are well rested for tonight’s showdown, the Hurricanes are no easy opponent. They are first in their division with a 9-1-0 record in their last 10 games including a 4-game winning streak. The Sens are 7-2-1 in their last 10 with every point being crucial at this point.
The out of town scoreboard didn’t always go our way this past week but we had some help and, with the Capitals seemingly weaker now, the Sens suddenly seem to have an opportunity.
